English

Make marks and then tell you what we have drawn. Support your child in learning to write their own name - please make sure you teach them that the first letter is a capital and the rest are lower case letters. We will be reading a range of stories and developing our understanding of different characters and how they feel. At home you can help your child by supporting and encouraging them to read with you.

Maths

Count forwards and backwards to 10. Encourage your child to count out objects around the home and to sing number songs with you such as ‘1,2,3,4,5 once I caught a fish alive.’
